In Vivo
METHODS: To investigat the effects on adverse biological behaviors in mice, Palmitic acid (0.3-30 μMol/mouse in castor oil) was administered as a Single intraperitoneal injection to C57BL/6J mice, and biological behaviors were analyzed 2-24 h later. Results: In a dose-dependent manner, Palmitic acid rapidly reduced locomotor activity in mice through a mechanism dependent on fatty acid chain length. 24 h after Palmitic acid administration, mice exhibited anxiety-like behaviors, whereas there was no impairment of locomotion, food intake, depression-like behaviors, or spatial memory. METHODS: To investigat the effects on myocardial injury, Palmitic acid (5 mM in 500 μL solution) was injected intravenously int the tail of wild-type C57BL/6 (B6) and Md2-/- (KO) mice once a day for seven days. Results: Palmitic acid induced myocardial inflammatory injury via TLR4 accessory protein MD2 and protected Md2 knockout mice from myocardial injury induced by Palmitic acid and high-fat diet.
In Vitro
METHODS: Mouse microglia BV2 were treated with Palmitic acid (25-200 nM) for 6-48 h, and cell viability was measured by MTT. Results: Palmitic acid had concentration and time-dependent inhibitory effects on microglia viability. METHODS: Monocyte-derived dendritic cells MoDC were treated with Palmitic acid ( 50 μM) for 12 h the expression of DC co-stimulatory factors was measured by Flow Cytometry. Results: Palmitic acid induce the expression of CD86 and CD83, indicating tha the activation and maturation of MoDC were induced simultaneously.
Cell Research
Cell Experiment Solubilisation Formula: 1. Dissolve 1 mg of palmitic acid in 78 μL of anhydrous ethanol to obtain a 50 mM stock solution; if a higher concentration is required, dissolve 1 mg of palmitic acid in 39 μL of anhydrous ethanol to obtain a 100 mM stock solution. 2. Prepare a 10% BSA solution using culture medium (e.g., DMEM); BSA without fatty acids is preferable, with a concentration of 100 mg/mL. 3. Fo the solvent control group, prepare ethanol and BSA control solutions a the corresponding concentration without lipids. 4. As an example of preparing 1 mL of a 0.25 mM working solution, mix 5 μL of 50 mM palmitic acid stock solution + 100 μL of 10% BSA solution + 895 μL of culture medium the final solution will contain 1% BSA the ethanol concentration should be controlled between 0.1%~0.5%. 5. Filte the working solution using a sterile filter membrane for use in cell processing.
